Veins that run in straight lines next to each other are called parallel veins. These types of veins can be found in all types of living organisms.

What term describes specific areas where the earths plates move against each other and produce earthquakes?
fault lines
What is the difference between a contour interval and an index contour?
the contour interval is the difference in elevation between contour lines that are next to each other
Why do earthquake are always near fault?
Earthquakes occur near fault lines because they happen when two plates slide into each other. Fault lines run over the space between tectonic plates are resting.
Why can't two contour lines overlap?
One contour can not cross another because a contour is one exact elevation; if it crossed another contour it would show that it is higher than the second contour on one side, but lower on the other side.
What are breaks in the earths crust where rocks have moved in relation with each other called?
The terms you reference involve tectonic plates and fault lines or fault zones (transform fault).
What are Lines that cross each other?
intersecting lines...
What do you call straight lines that intersect each other?
Perpendicular lines.
What is the definition of parallel lines?
Two straight lines that are equidistance from each other.
What are parelell lines?
Parallel lines are 2 long straight lines that don't touch each other
Perpendicular lines look like?
They are straight lines that intersect each other at 90 degrees
What do you call straight lines crossing over each other?
Tangent.
What are two straight lines that cross each other at a right angle?
Perpendicular Lines are two straight lines that intersect to form a 90 degrees or an right angle.Regards,
What are straight lines crossing over each other called?
Intersecting Lines. Two lines next to each other but go straight and never meet are called parallel lines. Perpendicular is when two lines cross right into the middle and makes 4 right angles (90 degrees). you!! :)
Angles are formed when two straight lines intersect each other?
That is correct.
What is differences between parallelism and perpendicularity?
parallell lines will never touch each other (if they went on forever) perpendicular lines touch each other at a 90° angle (one straight up; one straight across
What best describes prependicular lines?
Perpendicular lines are straight lines that intersect each other at right angles which is 90 degrees
What does perpendicular lines look like?
They are straight lines that intersect each other at right angles or 90 degrees.
